4.5 x 4 x 2.5 cm. This is a classic reticulated cerussite, complete all around in form. Ex. Willy Israel Collection.
6 x 5 x 3 cm. This smoky cerussite is heavily coated by brilliant green microcrystals of duftite on one side, though not at all on the other. Ex. Willy Israel Collection.
4 x 3.5 x 3 cm. This is a fine example of the rare red cerussites, found just once at Tsumeb. This one is relatively is unusual in that 1) the crystals atop is so euhedral and 2) the association with white calcite. Ex. Willy Israel Collection.
13 x 11 x 7 cm. This is a fine, gemmy, transparent cerussite crystal of unique form. It has a rich smoky color that is unusual in large cerussites. It is very dramatic, because of the strange geometric patterning atop the sharply tapered crystal. At the base, it widens and seems to be perched on or part of a reticulated twin. Ex. Willy Israel Collection.
4 x 3.5 x 1.6 cm. A fine reticulated latticework of cerussite crystals. Ex. Willy Israel Collection.

3.75 x 3 x 1.75 cm. Just a fine cerussite miniature of exquisite form! Ex. Willy Israel Collection.
2.0 x 1.5 x 1.25 cm. A sharp, complete-all-around thumbnail featuring a gemmy crystal of tabular smoky cerussite perched on just a bit of matrix for drama! Ex. Willy Israel Collection.
3.5 x 3.5 x 1.5 cm. A specimen of finely reticulated cerussite with unusually equant geometry to it! Ex. Willy Israel Collection.
5 x 3.2 x 1.6 cm. A fine cerussite crystal with associated malachite. Ex. Willy Israel Collection.
6.3 x 5.6 x 3 cm. This is an important combination specimen, in which you have several sets of complex twinned cerussites coated with the snow-white hydrocerussite. Ex. Willy Israel Collection.
4.4 x 4.4 x 2.0 cm. Nice, unusually complete six-ling of Cerussite. Many of the chisel-shaped crystals have excellent clarity and luster. The whole roseate crystal is a twin and a floater, with just a tiny bit of matrix on the back-middle showing where it was attached! There is also a small amount of Duftite to add to the specimen. Ex. Willy Israel Collection.
3.8 x 3.6 x 2.9 cm. A twinned, fat and gemmy crystal sitting aesthetically on a matrix of Duftite. Nicely accented with several smaller Cerussite crystals along the base. Ex. Willy Israel Collection.
4.8 x 2.8 x 1.4 cm. Superb luster, clarity, and form make this an absolute killer GEM crystal of cerussite. Ex. Willy Israel Collection.
5.8 x 4.0 x 2.4 cm. This set of four well-developed crystals shows good form, excellent clarity below the frequently frosted surfaces, and some associated Duftite. Ex. Willy Israel Collection.
3.5 x 3.2 x 0.4 cm. This specimen is a floater, sharp and complete all around. The thin cerussite crystal is coated front and back with sparkling, twinkling blue mineralization that is a combination of several copper minerals, from what we can tell. Ex. Willy Israel Collection.
